Question
Round off $27.981$ to nearest tenths.
✓
Answer
For rounding off the tenths place, we look at the hundredths place. Here, the digit at hundredths place is $8$ which is greater than $5.$ So, the digit at tenths place $9$ will be increased by $1$ and digits at the hundredths and thousandths place will be written as equal to zero. Hence, rounding off $27.981$ to nearest tenths, we get $28.$
